Quick Take: long wearing, creamy
I love all Guerlain lipsticks, embarrassingly to admit I normally only treat myself to one after a break up. So with a heavy heart I added Betsy, the beautiful little bullet that she is, into my collection.
I'm a sucker for MLLB shades, and this one just about takes the cake. Shiny but not shimmery, perfect looking lips with the right amount of color. I feel better now.

Great lipstick
-05.23.12
I love Guerlain's lipsticks. I personally think it has one of the best formulas. It applies easily without being too creamy. It wears throughout the day and doesn't flake off but fades into a nice subtle stain. The colors are all very elegant, and I think they are very unique without being over the top. The packaging is definitely something you wouldn't want to throw away after you finish the product. It doesn't tarnish, and the mirror casing makes it super easy to apply on the go without having to take out a compact.
My only complaint about this product is that it's a bit heavy and the magnetic casing doesn't aways stay closed.

Really great lipstick- the product itself, not the packaging, is what makes this a worthy purchase. Five stars for the formula- which is very smooth, very creamy, very moisturizing, and surprisingly long-lasting. Five stars for the color as well- Brit, a very pretty, very wearable, somewhat sheer pinky-coral. As for the case, I could take it or leave it- it's pretty, but the lipstick is so good, it could be in any kind of case and be worth it. One of those rare instances where what's on the inside outshines the outside. Would definitely buy again.

Quick Take: creamy, moisturizing, gorgeous color and case
When this lipstick arrived, I was first impressed in the beautiful craftsmanship of the case. The color looked too dark and I almost didn't try it and was going to return it. I just couldn't part with it. I tried the lipstick using a lip brush and the color was a gorgeous shade of rose. Not dark at all. It feels good on my lips and has a pleasant scent. It is too bad Guerlain doesn't offer replacement cartridges for these cases. It seems like such a waste to throw it out after the lipstick is gone. Surely, at least half the price is for the case.

Great lipstick, compact not so great
-12.02.11
Quick Take: moisturizing, creamy
I bought Bridget after reading the reviews and love the color. It's sheer like a gloss but not too shiny. The mirrored compact leaves a lot to be desired. The lipstick part doesn't stay inside the mirrored part of the compact. It comes apart easily and I often find it in 2 pieces in my purse. I have another Guerlain lipstick which does the same thing. You can't beat the lipstick quality and the choice of colors. I wish it came in a better quality (and less expensive) case.

Quick Take: creamy, moisturizing, long wearing, fun!
Lipstick is so creamy and long wearing. I love the originality of the mirrored lipstick case. It's too bad that they don't have refills for this product. Makes a wonderful gift!

Quick Take: moisturizing, creamy, expensive
Beautiful color and wonderful formula. Pretty good staying power. And the case is just gorgeous! Wish it wasn't so expensive, though..... Will probably only buy the one shade (Berry B20) but it is a great shade.

Quick Take: moisturizing, long wearing, creamy
I love this lipstick. It's pricey, but the texture, sheen, and pigment are really superior in my opinion. I bought Blondie and it is a great neutral for everyday. It's a nice splurge. Also, it is the most genuinely moisturizing of any lipstick I've ever tried.

Love it - so expensive though
-03.30.11
Quick Take: moisturizing, creamy, luxurious
I have this in Betsy, Geisha and Bee and I love them - they're wonderfully luxurious but are they worth the money? Probably not, but fun in any case. Betsy is my favorite because it's like a tinted balm I can wear every day. Very moisturizing too. Love and would definitely rebuy.

Quick Take: creamy, moisturizing
I love the luxuriousness of this lipstick's presentation -- and even on its own, the color, texture and sheen make it fabulous. It's not as heavily pigmented as the original Rouge G series; some of the colors are truly barely-there, so be sure to test these (if possible). Betsy (a very sheer berry plum) and Bridget are my two favorites. Beautiful!

-11.27.10
Quick Take: creamy
I purchased bella a few weeks ago and so far I love the colour. It goes on creamy and rich and its not sticky or smelly at all. I don't think it was worth the price but the packaging is very nice and I like how it doesn't smell too cosmetic-y, although The Balm lipsticks smell much nicer I think.

Worth Every Penny, Make more Shades!!!
-11.19.10
Quick Take: addictive
This is the most amazing lipstick, every girl should have at least one! It is long-wearing, especially with their primer and very creamy. I love the Brillant shades during the summer, or when you do a smokey eye. They apply a little more sheer yet still wear really well.

too sheer , too expensive
-10.28.10
Quick Take: moisturizing, sheer, embarassing packaging
this lipstick is pretty (i got Beatrix) but it's so sheer, it reminds me of a drugstore lipsheer i have . I don't think this lipstick is worth the money to be honest and even though the packaging is cute .. i was horrified to learn that my husband thought i was carrying a mini vibrator in my purse lol... yeah i said it! Sending it back tomarrow!

Blondie Rouge G Le Brillant
-08.26.10
Quick Take: creamy, moisturizing, long wearing, shiny
LOVE THIS--both the color and the lipstick quality. I have Blondie, which I was afraid would be too sheer and too light in color. Happily, it's neither. It's lightly brown with a bit of rose, and is perfect for a casual-yet-polished everyday look. I could not be more pleased. As for the quality of Rouge G, both Le Brillant and regular...they are hands down the best lipsticks I've ever bought. And I've bought thousands (sigh). Rouge G are creamy and moisturizing, yet the color lasts. I'm so happy and so impressed--it almost makes me not resent the high price and too-heavy packaging.

This formula wears beautifully and has just enough shine to it that I don't have to apply a gloss over it.

refill please?!
-04.24.10
Quick Take: creamy, long wearing
the lipstick itself is nice and the colors are wearable, and the appearance is great. But it only lasts as long as other amazing $20 lipsticks. What do you do with the packaging that you paid big bucks for? Put it on a shelf and be proud of it? Ridiculous! Guerlain, you must come out with a refill for this lipstick, just like YSL has for their matt touch powder. Otherwise, it`s a silly waste of money.

Soft Shine
-03.15.10
Quick Take: creamy, moisturizing, lovely shades
I fell in love with the beautiful spring colors of this lipstick. The colors are soft and shiny on your lips and go on smoothly. The lipstick leaves my lips moisturized. The case is beautiful and has a built in mirror. The lipstick also has a lovely rose scent. I do find that the lipstick does not stay on long and I have to frequently reapply it. This is a very expensive lipstick, mostly due to the case and packaging, however, I feel that it should stay on longer for that price. I wish that Guerlain gave customers the option of purchasing the lipsticks in a less expensive, or at least reusable case for what they charge for a lipstick.
